RNG frustration on fission upgrades
Love the demo, enough to have played 13+ hours and got all characters to F+3. My one frustration is with the RNG with the fission upgrades. I feel like it takes precedence over fun is not (not rare enough) instances.

I just played a +4 run and, somehow, got 1/5 upgrades 5 times in a row. The probability is extremely low, I agree. However, not being able to count on a constant upgrade count throws planning out the window.

I've reached the point where I abandon runs when the Ballista spawns because I know my upgrades are way behind and there is no way I'm catching up. I get the RNG aspects, and even the fun of it, but there's no way to adapt here if you get atrocious rolls. I can't pivot and just know I'm losing my time. That's not a good "vibe" I'd say.

Only complaint though, the rest is fun and the combos are cool. Good luck with the rest!

I do think the fusions should have a minimum of 2 upgrades, assuming at least 2 are available. Otherwise the 1 upgrade is little more than a level up and may not even be an upgrade you were hoping for. So even if the 2 upgrades were not the ones you were hoping for, it's still a net gain in comparison to a mere level up.

Played a bit more today and yeah... Rolling 1/5 is 1) not fun, 2) dooms the majority of runs and 3) is a mood killer passed F+3. Was fun while it lasted, hopefully it gets tweaked before release. Good luck!

I reached F+4, stuck there and I have the same feeling. Random defines success or lose, not build or aim skill or whatever. If rolls twice 1/5 in row -you already lost this run.

But it's not only one problem with random. There is no way to chose which build you want to do from start, usually need to select less bad that others option. And if you chose upgrage askill instead of picking a new one - you shrink your fission range to 4, 3 etc. As I noticed random depends from this value, chances to get 1 raises to 25%, 33%, 50%...
